Would you donate for unmodded chat improvements?

[Invictus Janus]

I sent an email to RB.

Raven,

I'll say it right off the bat. It's about unmodded, but hear me out.

The only issue in there is flooding. People come in and spam gibberish over and over and over again for hours at a time. It's sad and it's costing you bandwidth and aggravating everyone in there.

I'm not saying install moderators into it. I propose you add flood protection and make it impossible for people to enter the same string twice in a row and disallow more than two lines every 10 seconds in main rooms.

There's really no reason you should do this, but I'm going to ask, what's your price? How much of a donation would it take?

Thanks, Raven. I hope things are going well for you.

Yeah. Whatcha think? That flooding is ri-goddamn-diculous.

[Coquette]

The flooding screws with my computer.

I was going to comment on this topic... Until I saw the sig notice... *dies laughing* Sig ninja? You dork! Ahem, yeah... I doubt he'll listen, but hey, bribery is always a good try!

[Invictus Janus]

Bribery is a good cause. I just got the reply and his price is $50 USD.

Raise that money kids.

[Jocelyn]

Okay, so you win... I can't believe he listened to you of all people

LOL I was going to pay it too! If he demands more, I'll pay every freaking cent.

[Invictus Janus]

I owe Icsis $25 as soon as she figures out how to accept EMT. I can also do direct deposit too.

[Icsis of Exuma]

I have back woods banking. Feck if I know. ... I'll check the aol accounts...

[Promethius]

Superb. I'll kick in a few bucks too. This is the most sorely-needed thing I can think of.

Any reply regarding the donation?

[Zuri Petteri]

Can someone explain to me what this fix entails?

[Grin]

Two lines every ten seconds is the worst punishment ever to be dolled out...And I didn't even do anything. >.<;;

Is there a reason that it had to be two lines? Why couldn't it have been "four" or "five"....Or just kept the paragraphs the same?

Do you know what this is going to do to RP? -.-;;

Then again, I am being pretty selfish, here...

[Promethius]

I don't see how a line every five seconds is a bad thing at all, even for RPers. It'll stop both flooders and those idiots like PlayBoyBunny that insist on breaking one sentence across five lines. It's probably the best thing I can think of.

You do realize that a "line" means whatever you type out in one entry before you hit enter, not a single row of letters, correct? IE:

<Promethius> After the Riftwar, Kelewan's desire for horses grew, as they realized the numerous applications of equine labor. Unfortunately, with the Great Rift closed, supply dwindled as owners unfamiliar with the animals lost hundreds to poor handling and strange diseases.

^^^^ That's all one line.

[Labyrinth]

See.. I'm going to find one or two problems with that due to my habit of buffer humping.. and therefore having to spread RP over several posts. Oh well, I don't mind.

[Grin]

Ah. So one paragraph will remain the same? And I can have two per every ten seconds?

Then that -is- fine. it won't disrupt my RP in the least!
